    caliotter3 replied to Bones17's topic in General Specialties

    I wanted to go into medicine until I discovered the math that goes along with chemistry and I found out that someone has to pay for a college education. Teaching fell along the wayside when I really...

    A few questions

    caliotter3 replied to LauraRN13's topic in Home Health

    A colleague who did visits told me that she gave the clients a two hour window in her tight daily schedules. If they didn't want to cooperate, that was that. She wasn't going to budge for them. Nor...

    Aveanna Takeover of Maxim Healthcare Home Care Division Collapses

    caliotter3 replied to caliotter3's topic in Private Duty

    Have worked for both companies and at this point will say that clients and nurses who gravitate toward Aveanna most likely are bamboozled and unaware of the reputation of, at least, one of the parent...

    caliotter3 posted a topic in Private Duty

    The $1.25 billion dollar deal for Aveanna Healthcare to take over Maxim Healthcare's home care division has apparently bit the dust over the months long Federal Trade Commission investigation that...

    Race Issues in Nursing

    caliotter3 replied to Beaue's topic in General Nursing

    I saw this general behavior, to some extent, in military workplaces. One would think that if any people knew how to handle classroom, large group, small group, or individual management issues, it...

    Reading your post, I saw you getting wrapped around the axle. A short vacation, even just two or three days off in a row, might help you cope, at least for the short

    Employer Paying for School?

    caliotter3 replied to brookalyn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    If you find yourself looking at one of these programs, try to find people in the midst of their employment payback period and see what they have to say. That will give you a good

    Employer Paying for School?

    caliotter3 replied to brookalyn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Anecdotal: In general, this occurred more in the past than now. In general, I have read more tales of woe about people being stuck with unbearable work situations than I have read of people happy as...

    Terrible experience with nursing staff

    caliotter3 replied to guest1074638's topic in General Nursing

    No. This person is pushing it, no matter what happened 48 hours ago. They came here looking for validation with probably the same attitude they gave at the hospital. And we don’t have any idea how...

    I have read about programs turning away 4.0 applicants. One applies to alternate programs until they are accepted somewhere. Better to attend another program, than not attend at

    New grad Nurse quits nursing

    Keep your nursing license either active or inactive should you desire to pursue a new line of work. Obtain career counseling before you embark on a new path. Most importantly insure your health...

    Ruining My Career?

    The only situation that might hurt your career is to not work in nursing at all for an extended period of time. That might elicit an explanation during a job interview. All nursing managers understand...

    Should I take biology or chemistry?

    caliotter3 replied to Brenda Baret's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Most programs require at least one semester of both. The C grades put you in the position of needing to repeat both. In lieu of that decision, look at the specific requirements of the first program...

    caliotter3 replied to JackdLPN's topic in General Nursing

    It is a workplace truism that the “favorite” can get away with almost anything. The trick is in assuming anyone you observe to be left of center, is in fact, in cahoots with TPTB, and act...
